114114 Claude's latest to-do list stays visible, and so does the text a pending question from Claude is asking about; this requires Claude Code v2.1.225 or later. While Claude runs [subagents](/docs/en/sub-agents), live progress rows with their latest activity appear under the tool-call group that started them. This requires Claude Code v2.1.269 or later.
115115 * To report a bug, click **Report a problem** at the bottom of the menu, or type `/bug` or `/feedback` with an optional description that prefills the report. When you submit the report and you're signed in to Anthropic on a first-party connection, Claude Code sends it to Anthropic. On a third-party provider, or without Anthropic credentials, the dialog still opens, but submitting shows an error and sends nothing: unlike the CLI's `/bug`, the extension doesn't write a local archive. Requires Claude Code v2.1.229 or later.

117 If your organization's policy turns product feedback off, **Report a problem** doesn't appear in the menu, and `/bug` and `/feedback` show a `Feedback is turned off by your organization's policy or this environment's settings.` notice instead of opening the report.
116118* **Side questions**: type `/btw` followed by a question to ask about your session [without adding to the conversation](/docs/en/interactive-mode#side-questions-with-%2Fbtw). The answer opens in a panel beside the chat, where you can ask follow-up questions. The thread survives window reloads. Claude Code keeps the newest 20 exchanges and expires stored threads on the [`cleanupPeriodDays`](/docs/en/settings-reference#cleanupperioddays) schedule, as long as Claude Code can [safely determine the retention period](/docs/en/claude-directory#cleaned-up-automatically). To clear a thread, click the trash icon in the panel. Requires Claude Code v2.1.227 or later.
117119* **Context indicator**: the prompt box shows how much of Claude's context window you're using. Claude automatically compacts when needed, or you can run `/compact` manually.
118120* **Prompt cache clock**: a clock icon next to the context indicator estimates how much time the conversation's [prompt cache](/docs/en/prompt-caching) has left before it expires. It counts down from the cache's five-minute or one-hour [lifetime](/docs/en/prompt-caching#cache-lifetime), and each response that uses the cache restarts the countdown. Apart from compaction, the [actions that invalidate the cache](/docs/en/prompt-caching#actions-that-invalidate-the-cache) don't reset the clock, so it can still show minutes left after you switch models.
